On Raglan Road

by Patrick Kavanagh

‘On Raglan Road’ is a superb rendering of the breakdown of a relationship that brilliantly examines the way regret works.

The poem’s setting evokes an autumnal, melancholic atmosphere, and November symbolizes transition, fading beauty, and inevitable loss—just like his love. The imagery of falling leaves and the season’s somber tone mirror Kavanagh’s realization that his love was always destined to wither away.

On Raglan Road on an autumn day I met her first and knew

That her dark hair would weave a snare that I might one day rue;

I saw the danger, yet I walked along the enchanted way,

And I said, let grief be a fallen leaf at the dawning of the day.
